Why not increase all the positives by 10% and decrease all the negatives by 20%? Right across the board on all game elements and for all Factions and AI. This would speed up the game in all the tedious things (like capping, building, wait on JD, etc...) and battles would be more powerful and long lasting. Ships would be faster, stronger and deadlier!! Systems could turn over to an invading force quicker to add more danger in losing territory. I declare WAR on ICC and UGTO.
